Trauma & Anxiety Therapy That Actually Helps You *
You may be someone who feels things deeply and craves more than surface-level healing. Maybe you’ve spent time trying to understand yourself through podcasts, self-help content, or your own reflection, but still find yourself stuck in the same anxious thoughts, emotional patterns, or cycles of self-doubt.
Maybe you’re tired of how much of your life is spent inside your own head. You notice the slight shift in someone’s tone and immediately wonder if you did something wrong. You struggle to relax around people because part of you is always scanning, anticipating, bracing. Even in quiet moments, your body doesn’t fully feel at ease.
This is a space for lasting change. Together, we work beyond insight alone toward feeling calmer in your body, less consumed by anxiety, more present in your relationships, so that you can finally trust yourself.
Does this sound familiar?
Whether therapy is new to you or not…. You keep finding yourself in the same emotional patterns, anxious spirals, or relationship dynamics, and you’re exhausted by it.
You might notice it in these common ways:
You replay conversations for hours, wondering if you sounded stupid, annoying, too much, or not enough
You can’t tell the difference between intuition and fear anymore
Part of you still expects rejection, abandonment, criticism, or conflict, even in healthy relationships
You’ve spent so long responding to everyone else’s needs that you may have lost touch with what you truly want
Your self-worth rises and falls depending on how your body looks that day
You disconnect from yourself without even realizing it
Because this isn’t just happening in your mind, it’s happening in your body, too. A lot of therapy stays focused on talking and analyzing. But lasting change often comes from working with patterns underneath the surface that live in your nervous system. To learn more about my approach, click below.
What Therapy With Olivia Is Like
Let’s create something meaningful together
A space where all parts of you are welcome, even the ones you’ve learned to criticize or hide
Support that helps you step out of self-critical loops and relate to yourself with more compassion
Room to honestly express anger, grief, uncertainty, discomfort, or conflicting emotions without filtering yourself
A therapist who meets you where you are emotionally and joins you in your experience, in whatever that might be
Therapy that feels collaborative and deeply attuned rather than performative or surface-level
Work that helps you feel more connected to yourself, your emotions, and your body
Meet Your NYC Therapist for Anxiety
Hello, I am Olivia Korn, LCSW- and my work is about creating change you can actually feel
I’m an experiential therapist, which means I’m less interested in helping you just understand yourself and more focused on helping you actually feel and create change.
I integrate approaches like EMDR, somatic therapy, and parts work (IFS), but what matters most is how it feels to be in the process.
Slower. More attuned. Less performative.
We pay attention to what’s happening in real time; in your body, your emotions, your internal responses, so change isn’t just something you think about, but something you actually experience.
Some people are completely new to therapy. Others have been before but are looking for a deeper kind of therapy, one that helps them feel and experience change, not just understand themselves better.
If you’re looking for a space where you don’t have to perform or have it all figured out, you’re in the right place.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
When you’ve been living with anxiety for a while, your mind learns to stay busy as a way to protect yourself. Together, we use holistic, trauma-informed approaches to gently help your body and mind feel safe enough to slow down.
-
Carrying unprocessed emotions, chronic stress, or trauma can leave your nervous system overloaded. Therapy for anxiety and trauma focus on helping you regulate emotions and restore a more grounded sense of energy.
-
Often, these patterns are rooted in unresolved emotions and experiences stored in the nervous system. Through my integrative approach, we gently uncover and shift these patterns so you can experience healthier relationships and emotional balance.
-
Struggles with body image often come from years of learned comparison, pressure, and self-judgment, and from a body neutrality and acceptance lens, we work on relating to your body with more steadiness and less criticism, so it can simply be something you live in rather than something you constantly evaluate.
-
My work is grounded in both professional training and lived experience with anxiety, trauma, and body image struggles. I bring an integrative, holistic lens that focuses on helping you feel safer in your body, calmer in your mind, and more connected to yourself, not by fixing you, but by supporting you in coming back to who you already are.
